Dining room table

A bit untraditional, but I use a large Ikea dining room table because I like to spread everything out. Have a monitor on the left hand side and sit facing my TV so that I can watch something mindless on the right.

Actually having a friend that's an interior designer help me spruce it up, but i love the standing desk.

Small bedroom...I made the closet my desk with 2 file cabinets and a butcher block top. I actually purposely do not have a comfortable chair and sit on an inflatable wobble cushion on a modern wood chair. (An actual exercise ball was a bit much). When not working, can close the doors and desk and chair are out of sight. The room also includes Peloton bike and room for yoga.

Simple IKEA table with this
3 monitor setup with Roku on the 4th

Home office preference question. I am getting ready to redo the layout of my home office. One option I'm considering would have my desk facing a wall. I am wondering if anyone with this current setup has any feedback about it. I would face the wall so that I would have a better background for video conferences (am on about half the day) and also my cord situation would be cleaner.
